1949 Map of Snowdrift Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Snowdrift Mountain and the high ridges of the Webster Range dominate this 1940s landscape on the border of Caribou and Bear Lake counties. The terrain is a complex hydrologic divide, where the Great Basin Divide separates the Columbia River and Great Basin watersheds. Within the Caribou National Forest, the map reveals a remote network of ranching and forestry outposts. Small-scale human presence is marked by isolated landmarks such as Allemans Ranch, Nate Ranch, and the Trapper Cabin along the South Fork Deer Creek. These locations, along with the Clear Creek Guard Sta, highlight the era's reliance on localized mountain stations for land management and seasonal grazing. The drainage patterns of Crow Creek and Wells Canyon provide the primary routes through the steep topography of the Gannett Hills and Freeman Ridge.
